Cdebaca then quoted the tweet and responded, “#Solidarity Yaaaas!!”.

The tweet racked up thousands of replies.

In response to the outrage that followed, CdeBaca’s office released the following statement:

“Councilwoman CdeBaca made a sarcastic tweet on Twitter to call attention to the Trump administration’s downplaying of the Coronavirus outbreak as a “hoax” no more dangerous than the common flu. Rather than conservative outlets making a four-day-old Tweet their focus on Super Tuesday, they should focus their energy on demanding a competent Federal response to this public health crisis instead.”

The Colorado Republican Party was not ready to let CdeBaca get away with explaining the tweet away as mere “sarcasm,” and released the following statement:

“Councilwoman CdeBaca praising a social media post calling for Trump supporters to be infected with the coronavirus is simply disgusting. There can be no room in our politics for wishing harm on Americans who have different political beliefs. Democrats in Colorado and across the country need to condemn this evil statement,” “In light of these comments, the Colorado Republican Party is calling on Councilwoman CdeBaca to resign immediately.”

Democrats can say and do what they want without any repercussions. They can incite violence against Republicans, like Maxine Waters did, and the complicit DNC controlled media covers up for them. Hayley Geftman-Gold said, after the Las Vegas massacre, good for those who were killed. They were Republicans anyway. Snoop Dogg insinuated the murdering of President Trump and the complicit media laughed it off. After-all he’s black AND a democrat so it’s all funny. Is this the “civility” Hillary Clinton was talking about?

No worries. All 15 ill have recovered in the US according to the Misinfo Menuvah. Except the ones who didn’t. Its good to have junk science and Goebbles style propaganda on his side. Let’s take Uber to Riverdale tonite. No worries…

They shoot Congressmen, beat opponents, throw people out of restaurants and call for violence, thuggery and illnesses.

But go convince the nauseous majority of leftist Yids that Dementedrats are satanists.
